Overview

QatarDebate is pleased to announce its 4th International Schools Arabic Debating Championship in Doha, Qatar which will be conducted from 7th – 11th April 2018.

The purpose of this event is to bring together young Arabic and non-Arabic speaking debaters from Europe, North America, Africa, the Middle East, and Central Asia. The forum is a rich gathering that can be distinguished from other academic activities as it features a fusion of diverse cultures, ethnicities, and ideologies. Global debate gatherings are unique in terms of allowing people from different parts of the world with their diverse backgrounds to understand another’s point of view. Debaters question their pre-conceived notions and stereotypes and this inculcates tolerance and better understanding of the how they see the world.

In preparation for this major event, QatarDebate Centre is organizing a Training of Trainers (ToT) workshop on January 2018 in Doha. The aim of this training is to equip teachers and trainers with the necessary skills to select, train and prepare their teams for the championship as best as possible.

Registrations are now open for the 4th IUADC. Registrations will be confirmed strictly on a first come first serve basis upon payment of the registration fees. Please refer the Technical Regulations for more information.
